Publication Series

On June 6, 2014, educators from across four Canadian provinces: Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario, met in Saskatoon to launch Phase I of the NOW Play Project. Researchers, teachers, principals, day care workers, and parents got together in focus groups to discuss their experiences and perceptions on the current practices in early years education settings. This series of papers reports on discussions about teaching, learning and assessment practices in the areas of play-based learning, children’s oral language, and early writing development.
